    In about a month I'm planning on placing an order for a x7200 fully specced out with a 990, 12gb, 2 SSD Raid 0, sli 485, etc..

    However, I hate to pick something up the day before the next best thing gets launched. I understand in the tech world every few month generally there's a new update to hardware, so when do you guys think the next great flagship notebook will launch?

    Doesn't have to be clevo, but at least better than the x7200 (price doesn't matter).

    Also pay attention to your configuration. Please be aware of SSD usage w/ RAID and Trim

    Thanks for the info!

    I found this suggesting Intel has released a driver to solve this problem as long as the SSD and motherboard support TRIM initially.
    Would the above drivers solve this problem with the right SSD's and does the x7200 motherboard support TRIM?
